Source: intelrdfpmath Version: 2.0u3-1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I believe the various library flavors included in libintelrdfpmath-dev need some documentation. The included upstream README does not have any instructions on linking, and the bit fields (000b) in the lib filenames seem to be Debian-specific. I only found about their meaning by reading the debian/rules file which is not shipped in the package. So in short, please add README.Debian file for this. Maybe explaining "when should you use one over the other flavor" is out of scope, but at least the existence of the flavors should be mentioned. Found while packaging documentdb which uses the library. There I hardcoded -lbidgcc000 now, but I guess that wasn't the optimal choice. ppc64el already complained about it: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libbidgcc000.a(bid_binarydecimal.o) uses IBM long double, src/query/bson_compare.o uses IEEE long double https://salsa.debian.org/postgresql/documentdb/-/blob/master/debian/patches/cflags?ref_type=heads#L14 https://jengus.postgresql.org/job/documentdb-binaries/architecture=ppc64el,distribution=sid/2/console Thanks, Christoph
